Ika is making an extra amount of noise today, fretting about in his 'tank' with Ebi, who seems decidedly less interested in whatever has Ika all riled up.
"Calm down, Ika-chan. There's nothing to be worried about anymore. We beat all the badguys and the Gokaigers cleaned up the rest. Settle down." I tap the tank gently, smiling and trying to get her to relax.
My head snaps up and I double take when someone calls out a greeting in french. I am in Japan, right? I line my hand up with my forehead, like I'm shielding my eyes from the sun, and squint.
A student, I assume, based on his clothes, is the one calling the greeting. I wave in return.
"Salut!" I return the greeting in french, I know my accent is strong, but I continue for a bit anyway, just because that's how I was greeted. "Que puis-je obtenir pour vous aujourd'hui?*"
